“With Home Depot and Starbucks moving to offer employees bonuses as a result of President Trump’s tax reform package,the total number of firms rewarding workers has reached 250, a jump of 525 percent in just two weeks,” Washington Examiner reports. “The companies have credited the tax changes for plans to offer bonuses of up to $3,000, increases in retirement plans, wage hikes and even adoption benefits,” Paul Bedard writes.

Reuters reports thatFedEx “will spend more than $3.2 billion on wage increases, bonuses, pension funding and capital investment, taking advantage of the U.S. tax overhaul signed into law in December.” Eric M. Johnson writes that “the announcement makes FedEx the latest U.S. company to promise higher pay for workers, citing the tax cuts.”

Today’s liberals are frothing at the mouth, spitting, howling at the moon and threatening publicly to assassinate President Trump.

One protestor at the Los Angeles women’s march this past weekend carried a sign that said, “Kill Donald Trump, Kill Mike Pence. It’s guillotine time, bitches.” When asked by a reporter what she wanted in their place, she replied she wanted a “communist utopia.”

Isn’t liberalism sweet?

The timing for this liberal meltdown is perfect.Because liberals are so busy frothing at the mouth, they don’t even notice President Trump is erasing Obama like he never existed and is preparing to drain the swamp.

On December 21st, Trump just declared waron the Deep State, DC Swamp, Hillary and Obama via what could be the most important Executive Order in the history of America.

The new Executive Order saysthat anyone in the United States who aids or participates in government corruption or human rights abuses by foreign parties is subject to frozen assets. This includes any U.S. corporation who employs foreigners deemed to have engaged in corruption on behalf of the company.

Why didn’t anyone notice?Because master psychologist Donald J. Trump distracted all of them with his Weapons of Mass Distraction. I.e., offensive words and outrageous tweets. While liberals were busy mocking Trump and responding to his tweets with insanity and hysteria, Trump quietly announced that he was going “scorched earth” on Hillary, the Clinton Crime Family, the Clinton Foundation, Obama, the FBI and DOJ leadership, and the entire DC swamp.

Mass arrests are coming.Famous and powerful people are going to finally pay for their crimes against the American people.

The #2 man at the FBI, Andrew McCabe was pushed out/resigned/terminated yesterday. The fact is he was placed on ‘permanent leave of absence’ until March when he can retire with full benefits… to the tune of $1.8 million. He will likely then get a six-figure job as a lobbyist on J Street where old politicians go to continue raking in big money. Congress voted to release the FISA memo, which will once again demonstrate how dirty and morally bankrupt the Democrats are and how deeply the system has been corrupted. Despite all the sh*tstorm, I still maintain nobody of any import is going to jail.

Top FBI official retires after scrutiny for handling of Clinton email investigation

By multiplying McCabe’s highest average salary of $157,800 by 1.7 percent, for each of his first 20 years of service, he receives an annual $53,652 pension. He receives an additional 1 percent for one year of service, having served since 1996. This gives McCabe an additional $1,578, giving him an annual pension of $55,230.

The swamp immediately struck back. The new Acting Deputy Director of the FBI replacing Andrew McCabe, David Bowdich worked under Comey. In fact, he may be a witness in the ‘Trump-Russia’ investigation because Comey had a conversation with him about Trump asking the former FBI Director to supposedly ‘back off its probe into General Flynn’.

Even worse, Bowdich was involved in the Clinton-Lynch tarmac meeting conversations with Comey as they scrambled to hide the scandalous meeting from the public.

Pelosi: Immigration framework is a ‘campaign to make America white again’IT’S SO SAD THAT RACE BAITING IS ALL THEY HAVE

“Let me just say what I said last night: that plan is a campaign to make America white again,” Pelosi said, claiming that the proposal will cut legal immigration by 50 percent…
In her remarks, Pelosi thanked mayors across the country for their “courage” in overseeing sanctuary cities, jurisdictions that do not fully cooperate with federal immigration authorities.

MANCHIN IS THE MOST ENDANGERED DEMOCRAT IN THE SENATE. HE’S TRYING DESPERATELY TO SOUND LIKE A MODERATE TO SAVE HIS JOB. IT’S ALL AN ACT.

“You know what? We don’t need that type of rhetoric on either side,” Manchin told CNN’s Jake Tapper on State of the Union. Asked whether that meant he “condemned” Pelosi’s remark, Manchin replied that his criticism would apply to both sides: “I’m condemning all this crazy rhetoric that goes on. Just because someone’s a Republican — it’s not my enemy. And we have to work together.”

Reid was at it again on her MSNBC show this morning. This time, the target of her ire was Jason Johnson, former chief strategist to Sen. Ted Cruz. When Johnson committed the unforgivable sin of twice referring to the “Democrat” party, Reid interrupted:

“You’re new to our show, but we say ‘Democratic’ party here.”

HEY JOY…SCREW YOU!

[CtH: Joy, honey, I go out of my way to use “Democrat Party.” I know it’s wrong and everybody who reads me regularly knows I’m a grammar nazi, so yes, it is meant to be a subtle insult. But given that you and your ilk regularly disrespect me and my “pro-life” peeps by using “pro-abortion”, I can’t say as I give a flippin’ finger what you think about it.]

I DIDN’T BOTHER TO POST ANYTHING ABOUT THE GRAMMYS FOR A REASON; I JUST DON’T CARE.

[CtH: Good.]

BRUNO MARS WON 7 AWARDS AND THE INSUFFERABLE JAY-Z, OBAMA’S HOMEBOY, WAS NOMINATED FOR 7 AWARDS AND DIDN’T WIN A DAMN THING. THAT DIDN’T STOP HIS JACKASSERY.

JAY-Z slams Trump’s ‘s—hole’ comments, calls him a ‘superbug’

Trump must not have watched the interview because, as Jones noted on Twitter, he actually broached that very topic. “[Trump] is somebody who’s now saying, ‘Look, I’m dropping black unemployment. Black people are doing well under my administration.’”

Jones said. “Does he have a point? … Maybe he’s going to say terrible things but put money in our pocket; does that make him a good leader?”

“No,” JAY-Z replied. “It’s not about money at the end of the day. Money doesn’t equate to happiness, it doesn’t. That’s missing the whole point. You treat people like human beings.”

The Two Republicans Who Voted Against The 20-Week Abortion BanI GET SO TIRED OF THESE TWO.

The Senate voted 51-46 in favor of the Pain Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, which was short of the 60 votes required to proceed to a final vote under current Senate rules.

Republican Sens. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Susan Collins of Maine both voted against the bill, which would have prohibited abortions on unborn babies after 20 weeks, the age at which they can feel pain, with exceptions in cases rape, incest or to save the life of the mother.

[CtH: These two always vote pro-abortion, but there are 2 or 3 Democrats who are strong on our side. If they change the Senate’s rules, this could pass. Planned Parenthood will instantly challenge it in the courts, so it won’t save many lives right away, but it will move the issue back to the SCOTUS docket eventually. A large majority of Americans favor it and Ginsburg is older than dirt, so we can pray with realistic hope.]

“He had a longtime fear of being poisoned, one reason why he liked to eat at McDonald’s — nobody knew he was coming and the food was safely premade,” the former Democratic presidential candidate read from the book, before Grammy host James Corden told her she had the award “in the bag.”

Along with Clinton, Corden’s bit of searching for the best narrator of Wolff’s book included Snoop Dogg, Cardi B, DJ Khaled and other stars.

Nikki Haley derided the producers of Sunday night’s Grammy Awards for a segment that features Hillary Clinton reading ‘Fire and Fury’. In the segment, Clinton had a giant grin as she read a passage about President Trump’s ‘longtime fear of being poisoned’

[CtH: And the 12-year-old rape victims who weren’t stepping stones to be squashed to advance her career.]

12-Year-Old Being Honored By Trumps At SOTU For Placing U.S. Flags And Flowers At The Graves Of Veterans Since 2015A 12-year-old Redding boy will be a guest Tuesday at President Donald Trump’s State of the Union speech. Preston Sharp, who has won acclaim for placing U.S. flags and flowers at the graves of North State veterans since 2015, will be one of a number of presidential guests at Trump’s speech, the White House announced Monday.

He is attending the address at the invitation of Donald and Melania Trump and will sit in the House of Representatives gallery with the first lady during the speech, the White House said.

Former Democrat Congresswoman Corrine Brown Turns Herself In To Prison, Still Draws Her Congressional Pension
SHE WAS SENTENCED TO FIVE YEARS…SHE’LL BE OUT IN TWO OR THREE AND WILL IMMEDIATELY GET RE-ELECTED.

The bus paused at the prison complex’s entrance and waited for Bishop Kelvin Cobaris to cross the highway and get on board. Cobaris had parked across the street from the prison, awaiting Brown’s arrival. Cobaris, who is the president of the African American Council of Christian Clergy, described himself as Brown’s spiritual advisor.

It’s unlikely that we will be able to see Corrine Brown’s mug shot. Unlike county and state corrections facilities, federal prisons rarely release mug shots. Brown will continue to collect her Congressional pension while she’s in prison until the appeals process has been exhausted.

President Trump will give his first State of the Union speech tonight. It should be far more interesting than Barky’s last one, even just for the agita the progtards will be suffering.

I never watched Obama spew his platitudes and outright lies, mostly because his voice was offensive to me. I may watch part of the speech tonight, but chances are I’ll just recap tomorrow.

Basically it’s a chance for him to tout his successful leadership in growing the economy, stemming the flood of illegal, and promoting America to the world instead of apologizing for her greatness.

The Democrats plan to have at least six — count ’em, six — rebuttals after his speech. The official response will be by some Kennedy (yes,one of THOSE). The most interesting will be by Gasoline Maxine, whose rebuttal will be repeating “Impeach 45! Impeach 45!” over and over until she has a seizure and passes out.

State of the Union To Emphasize Economy, Military Strength

It will focus on five broad topics: the economy, a $1-trillion-plus plan to rebuild infrastructure, Mr. Trump’s new immigration proposal that includes a pathway to citizenship 1.8 million young illegal immigrants, trade policy and a plan to rebuild the military.

“To Congress, the tone will be one of bipartisanship and very forward-looking,” a senior administration official said. “The economic upswing is helping everybody — all groups are benefiting.”

One of the chief organizers of Monday’s counter-State of the Union in New York City is charging that President Trump needs to be overthrown before he ends the world. Really.
Moore, with Mark Ruffalo, Whoopi Goldberg, Rosie Perez and Cynthia Nixon are headlining the Hollywood-filled New York event and MoveOn.org is fundraising off it. Trump gives his address to Congress on Tuesday.

[CtH: Maybe these folks could actually LISTEN to the speech? Just a suggestion.]

Waters, one of Trump’s most vocal critics, will appear on “Angela Rye’s State of the Union” on BET, according to BuzzFeed News. Waters, who is one of several Democratic lawmakers who have said they will not attend Trump’s speech on Tuesday, has consistently criticized Trump throughout his presidency, repeatedly calling for his impeachment.

Anti-Trump Moonbat Celebs Plan ‘People’s State Of The Union’, Price Of Admission Is $47.00

Monday’s event also will serve as a platform for the launch of “We Stand United,” the lead organizing group of the “People’s State of the Union.”

The group’s campaign director, Julia Walsh, said, “We’re all going to work together across all different movements to make sure that we win back Congress in 2018 and hold this president in check.”

“It’s the mother of all movements,” Ruffalo said.

[CtH: No, Mark. The “mother of all movements” in this country was the American Revolution, followed closely by the Republican Party’s founding to end slavery in the U.S. The “mother of all movements” in all of world history was the rise of Christianity.]

Joseph Kennedy III to give Democratic response to Trump’s State of the Union addressWILL THEY EVER RUN OUT OF KENNEDYS?

[CtH: Not the way Bobby and Ethel reproduced, no.]

“From healthcare to economic justice to civil rights, the Democratic agenda stands in powerful contrast to President Trump’s broken promises to American families,” Kennedy, 37, grandson of the late Senator Robert F. Kennedy and three-term congressman, told the paper.

Virginia Democrat Elizabeth Guzman of the Virginia House of Delegates will give the Spanish-language response, the paper reported.

[CtH: Name ONE promise Candidate Trump made that President Trump has broken. Just one. I’m waiting.]

Joe Kennedy to bring transgender soldier to Trump’s State of the Union

SURE, WHY NOT?
Staff Sgt. Patricia King will be the lawmaker’s guest to Trump’s address, according to The Boston Globe. King told the Globe that she realized she was a transgender woman while serving in the military, and soon came out to her family.

Trump announced last year that he was banning transgender people from serving in the U.S. military. However, courts have halted the ban and transgender people were allowed to enlist starting Jan. 1.

Supreme Court Justice Ginsburg to Skip Trump’s State of the Union, Says She is Not Retiring

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg will not be in attendance at President Trump’s State of the Union address Tuesday evening. Ginsburg also skipped out on Trump’s address to Congress last year after attending each of former President Barack Obama’s eight addresses before Congress.

Democrats And Leftists Will Be Giving At Least Six Separate Responses To Trump’s State Of The Union Address

No habla inglés? No problemo. Virginia Del. Elizabeth Guzman will give the Democrats’ official Spanish-language response, although it’s not clear how her message will differ from Kennedy’s.

But that’s not all. Vermont’s Independent Sen. Bernie. Sanders will be speaking off-the-cuff after the state of the union during a live streamed event on social media. Remember, Sanders isn’t an official member of the Democratic Party, so he’ll be going rogue as he did in 2017.

Former Maryland congresswoman and candidate in the Prince George’s County executive race, Donna F. Edwards will speak on behalf of the Working Families Party after Sanders.

MSNBC Guest Has Crazy Idea For State Of The Union Response, And It Involves The Black Panther Party

The way Donald Trump has taken advantage of this reality TV atmosphere, I think they should have gotten all of their all stars. This is a different day and age. We don’t have to play by the old playbook rule,” Cross said. “Get Kamala Harris. Get Cory Booker. Get Kirsten Gillibrand. And produce this like you’re producing the trailer for the Black Panther party. Get them all together. Rallying cry.”

Frederica Wilson: Trump Doesn’t Deserve to be “Honored with my Presence” at SOTU

SO SAYETH ANNIE BLACKLEY

Wilson said that instead, she will be viewing the SOTU with: “My local Muslims and Dreamers and local Mexicans, and local Haitians, and victims of sexual abuse, and local Gold Star families, and local Africans who are Nigerians and South Africans.”

Donald Trump’s State of the Union address is coming up this Tuesday, but some students must have gotten a sneak peek, because they already hated it.

THIS IS WHAT THE MEDIA AND THE SOCIALIST INDOCTRINATION CENTERS KNOWN AS COLLEGES HAVE PRODUCED

Critics of Trump have already begun to express displeasure with his actions in the days leading up to the speech, leading some to wonder whether this opposition is substantive, or rooted in a distaste of Trump as a person.

Wanting to find out, Campus Reform headed to New York University to ask students their opinions of President Trump’s State of the Union. The only problem for them was that the speech would not take place for another seven days.

Would that stop them from giving strong, condemnatory opinions on the speech?

State of the Union 2018 — Where to Watch, Follow, Join the Conversation

The president will likely urge both parties to solve the immigration problem in the United States, commit to serious border security, and announce plans for dramatic infrastructure spending.

The speech will be about “building a safe, strong, and proud America,” according to administration officials, thanking the heroic Americans who worked hard to restore our country after devastating hurricanes hit the country and the Americans who are working to keep the country safe

“Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.”
